1. Signal IN Rotary Level Control: For Line Level set at 70% CW, and for 10Vpp at set
30% CW. Faceplate is marked accordingly.
2. Signal IN: Line Level or typical Modular Synth levels acceptable. AC Coupled.
3. Sound On Sound CV IN: sets mix of previously recorded Loop with Live Signal input
when recording, to allow for Sound on Sound type “overdubs.” Also allows for setting
monitoring level of Live input signals with previously recorded Loop. May be misused
as a Voltage Controlled Crossfader (between Live and Loop) or VCA for Loop (no Live
Signal). Range 0V to 8V, linear response. Normalized to +10V.
4. Sound On Sound Attenuator: with nothing patched to SOS CV IN (which is normal-
ized to +10V) works as standard panel control. With Signal Patched to SOS CV IN,
works as attenuator for that signal.
5. Signal OUT: 10Vpp (depending upon Signal IN attenuator setting and source mate-
rial), AC coupled.
6 & 7. VARI-SPEED and Splice Indicator LEDs: These LEDs tell user in which direc-
tion the Phonogene is playing. The LEFT Blue (7) LED indicates reverse playback, right
Orange LED (6) indicates forward playback. When no LEDs are lighted, playback is
stopped.
8. VARI-SPEED CV IN: bipolar speed and direction control where 0V stops playback,
positive control signal increases playback speed in forward direction, negative control
signal increases playback speed in reverse direction. Range +/-4V.
9. VARI-SPEED Bipolar Panel Control: manual bipolar speed and direction control.
When set to 50% playback is stopped, turning Clockwise from 50% increases playback
speed in forward direction, turning Counter Clockwise from 50% increases playback
speed in reverse direction.
10. VARI-SPEED CV IN Attenuvertor: bipolar attenuator for VARI-SPEED CV IN.
11. ORGANIZE CV IN: unipolar control signal input which selects next Splice to be
played. The currently selected Splice will play to end before the next Splice is selected.
The VARI-SPEED and Splice Indicator LEDs (6 & 7 ) will flash whenever this control
finds a new Splice. Range 0V to +5V.
12. ORGANIZE CV Attenuator: unipolar attenuator for Organize CV IN.
13. ORGANIZE Panel Control: manual unipolar control which selects next Splice to be
played. The VARI-SPEED and Splice Indicator LEDs (6 & 7 ) will flash whenever this
control finds a new Splice.
14. PLAY Pulse IN: at each rising edge signal applied to PLAY Pulse IN, Phonogene trig-
gers playback. At end of loop or splice, Phonogene looks at PLAY Pulse IN, if HIGH, it
plays again, if LOW Phonogene does not play. This Input is normalized to be HIGH.
So with nothing patched to PLAY Pulse IN, Phonogene will play continuously. Sees only
rising edge of signal. Needs at least 1.5V trigger signal to operate.
